Foreign Languages and Cultures: Italian Studies and Romance Languages, German Language and Communication
Description
The aim of the study program Foreign Languages and Cultures is to train well qualified bachelors in the Humanities with a broad range of knowledge and competences, who have a knowledge of Italian, French or German (C1 level) and an additional foreign language (B2 level). Graduates will grasp the fundamentals of linguistics, literary studies, translation, intercultural communication, and production of spoken and written texts, and become familiar with the culture of a chosen country, its history, political and economic situation. Students will be able to translate from source into target language and vice versa, interpret and analyse different countries’ cultural phenomena in the European and global context. Graduates will be able to apply their linguistic, communicative, cultural, social and other competences in professional and academic areas.
"As French-speaking countries' influence in the world grows, Lithuania and international institutions increasingly need communication experts proficient in French language technologies, translation specialists, and literary scholars. I fully agree with the opinion of French communication professor Dominique Wolton that "Francophonie best reflects its time."
Prof. dr. Aurelija Leonavičienė Programme Lecturer
"Studies in French philology helped me discover my professional direction - the challenging yet beloved job of a French language teacher. With what I gained from my studies, I confidently share with my students and rejoice in seeing their interested faces."
